XP home version/word perfect/kanji show up as ????

[Guest]

I have XP home version. I enabled the east asian support per info found here.
When I try to type in Japanese in a word perfect document, the
romaji/hiragana shows up off the page in the upper left corner (floating text
bar) and when I hit the space key it changes to kanji as it should.

However when I hit return to accept the kanji, instead of displaying the
kanji on the document, question marks are displayed. I went into
tools/language but there wasn't a Japanese option displayed to select.
Does anyone know of a way of overcoming this??
Thanks,

You really should get support for WordPerfect at www.corel.ca, but the
answer is that Asian languages use UNICODE True Type fonts which WordPerfect
doesn't support.
